Bombastic Loudmouths

Calling for a bipartisan health care plan to replace Obamacare, Senator John McCain urged his senate colleagues to stop listening to the bombastic loudmouths on the radio, TV and the internet. Commonsense tells me that the sentiments expressed by Senator McCain on the floor of the U.S. Senate were long overdue.

Unfortunately, commonsense also tells me that the American political system is badly broken when it takes a diagnosis of terminal brain cancer to bring an old man to his senses and finally call for bipartisan solutions to the nation’s problems. Hopefully, the talking heads on radio, TV and the internet, as well as Senator McCain’s senate colleagues, were listening carefully.
